Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher or Ayrton Senna, who is or was the best.
Ayrton Senna of course. It's amazing what he did in the Lotus-Renaults and later in the weak McLaren in 1993. Unfortunatelly he died when he got a very competitive car again. He would have won a few more championships...
Shumi and Hamilton are also very good drivers.

Sena and Miachel were fantastic drivers - they did not need a fast car to win races, they could win with every car, because their qualities were amazing. Can not say the same for Hamilton and I think he must never be compared to them. It is not serious. That is my personal opinion.
in general, many have already written that a lot depends on the machine, so the comparison is simply incorrect and impossible. even in modern conditions, put everyone behind the same cars and Hamilton will not be a super champion, because he competes with only one rider, a teammate. (example of Rosberg 2016)
Comparisons are always hateful but if you have to make them I think Senna was a better driver, My favorite driver of all life was Michael Schumacher but I think that in a heads up against Senna the second would be favored and Hamilton is a monster at the wheel but not I think I can bring a career to these two excellent drivers, I would like to add a driver to your list and Alain Prost would be Senna eternal rival
Racers should have comparisons but measuring their dids in their times, whit all technology, environment, and rules they were surrounded by etc. But one thing is for sure, that there were further more excitement during the old times F1.
Racers should have comparisons but measuring their deeds in their times, whit all technology, environment, and rules they were surrounded by etc. The great racers throughout F1 history were made by their bigger records and numbers and many of them had been forgotten, not by the enthusiasts, but by the average media, mainly overcome by the record numbers updated by the passing times. Who can forget Gilles Villenueve (father), the most fearless race driver of all times; Nigel Mansel, the lion; Niki Lauda, the plane pilot, who came back from an accident which burned his body an face and won the following championship; Fangio, the biggest champion; Ricardo Patrese, fearless flying Italian; Jacks Stuart, the flying Scottish; Jim Clark, another fearless and champ at 2 different categories; Emerson Fittipaldi, champion at both F1 and F Indy (won the most danger race Indianapolis 500 miles); Alain Prost, the professor, the most smooth driver and many many others if I put down here would be hard to read? They're all great and brought lots of fun and excitement at their times.
Now, Lewis Hamilton is the shinning guy of the moment.

I would say Michael Schumacher was the best going on the number of titles that he won in his career. Now Lewis Hamilton overtaking Schumacher's 91 race wins and will equal 7 titles by end of this season will ultimately by the best.
I would invite Lewis, Michael and Ayrton to race with the vehicles that the great Juan Manuel Fangio ran and let them define who is the best!
It is difficult to choose one because the moments of each one are different.
It cannot be compared and it is impossible to do so.
Cheers!

But that was the same for schumacher, ferrari in the 2000s was the maclaren of 2010s and he didn`t even had a competitor inside his team may i remember the time when ferrari ordered barrichello to drop his first position to schumacher that was in second. Senna was an amazing driver, but i do not like to pick who was the best because it is not truly comparable. The truth is that from the 2000s forward F1 lost some of it`s fun not only for the drop of accidents which made the race more predictable but also for sheer domination of some teams.
